P Sylar Christ Almighty guys, cut 'er some slack. Women change when they're riding with the little ones around. It may take her a couple (few) years of riding with the kids before she gets back into the throttle. My wife did the same thing. Now that the kids are older she'll let it eat again.
That defender is a beast! I been eyeballing em for a while but it is nice to see they can hold their own in the rough stuff. There are not very many videos out yet where they are in these type of situations.
3 things I would like to point out: 1.) I know where my green bungy strap went to. 2.) Mrs. Ostacruiser still needs lessons on "pinning it"! 3.) We need to go riding!!!
John I bought an 850 XMR it has the shorter wheelbase love it! Something you should consider I have a walkaround video on my channel going over the features and specs check it out!
Cant argue with that. But ya if you are looking for a more economical option that still performs the same and even sometimes better than the 1000 XMR the 850 is great. I personally like it better than the 1000 because of the shorter wheelbase
Osta, any feedback on the seating situation in the defender ? We're about to pull the trigger on a sxs and at this point, it's down to the defender and a general. Keep in mind that long 8+ hour rides are the norm for us and that bench seat in the defender looks painful to me at this point. We need something that can (on occasion) earn it's keep do an X3 or gen1 maverick are not really an option.
+ROTAXD They are actually very comfortable. Keep in mind certain trim levels have different seats. I would go down to the local dealer and sit in them and see how they fit
The kids must have had a blast helping you guys "fetch firewood" Trees all around ,but we gotta ride miles of trails to get that perfect little Birch tree... lol Teach em young ! Great vid !
Hey Osta,you should check out halo locker front diff. You get fully locked front diff...true 4wd. Seems to have very good reviews. It gets rid of the visco lock.
Ya they build a great product, I have always been very happy with my qe visco loks. i think the bit of slip keeps the front end togethet when you ride wfo as much as we do lol
On the defender, did y'all put wheel spacers on the rear? I just bought an xtp model and I put my silverbacks on and the rear is about an inch narrower.
I know I've asked about what gears to use (depending on terrain) before on one of your videos but I'm not mechanically inclined... Owners manual for my quad says to use L for pulling things or when going under 7 mph. So my question is what about that marshy area/water in the video? It seems like you guys were going over 7 mph but would want the low end power...
If you are mudding always low gear, Really if there is some resistance (mud, snow, etc) or if the bike is towing something always low. High is for cruising and trail riding smooth trails going fast.
Swamp donkey is correct, always use Low when your in mud, clay, skeg ect if your skimming over water or just in water it's fine to use High. When ever your towing use low and 4x4 just to pressure off the bike.
that 6x6 is so awesome, i was looking on the can am website and i don't think the factory 6x6 is available in canada, so how did you manage to get one?
What did you do to this what besides the tires/ rims did you add to it (Defender)? Skids? Lift? Im trying to see what it can do stock before i go get myself stuck in debt with upgrades
+InAllSeriousness88 We did absolutely zero to it besides bolting on the stock 30" Silverbacks from my Xmr Renegade. What a great machine. Surprised the heck out of us
hey ostacruiser I love watching your video's and awesome atv's bud, hi from teulon manitoba my brother does the same awsome things u guys do with the atv's, keep up the awesome video's
yes / no see can am sponsers these people they give them the four wheelers and they make ostacrusier uses them and makes videos on them so then a lot of people see their stuff and whant to buy it if you understand say yes if not say no
The x3 just looks like all of the SXS's on the market had a gang bang and was blessed with the heart of rotax. Really though, try to spot all the similarities. Rzr rear suspension, wild cat low profile, exposed front springs like the yzr, etc.
Hey Ostacruiser I’m thinking of trading in my can am outlander max xt 1000 for a side by side. I want to be able to take my daughter and wife with me when I go to the farm in Pennsylvania. Which model should I get. The defender max xt or a commander. Thank for any help
Brian Piscitelli I agree with Osta on the Defender being a better machine. But if your dealer will play ball, I'd test ride both. Some folks seem to really like the upright seating on the commanders.
That defender doing work... im sold.
That "ugh" when she stuck the Mavrick, funny.
Hahaha not pleased
Haha yeah that annoyed ugh
Why tf was she going so slow, was she scared😂😂😂
P Sylar Christ Almighty guys, cut 'er some slack. Women change when they're riding with the little ones around. It may take her a couple (few) years of riding with the kids before she gets back into the throttle. My wife did the same thing. Now that the kids are older she'll let it eat again.
That "ugh" is the answer to a question. That question is "What it's like to be married?"
AT all costs we have to get the firewood!! Beauty... Luv it.
just bought a defender hd8 yesterday, hopefully ill received today in a couple of hours, can`t wait!
Right on dude! Congrats!
I bought the Defender last year "awesome machine"......hard to stick them !
bet the kids had a blast in the Defender, nice vid, thanx for sharing.
Man they didn't want the ride to end!
That's so cool with the kids in the defender.
That defender is a beast! I been eyeballing em for a while but it is nice to see they can hold their own in the rough stuff. There are not very many videos out yet where they are in these type of situations.
Sweet video the defender looks awsome for a work/play rig
I am liking that Defender more and more
the defender is a beast
3 things I would like to point out:
1.) I know where my green bungy strap went to.
2.) Mrs. Ostacruiser still needs lessons on "pinning it"!
3.) We need to go riding!!!
all true!
+ostacruiser hey thinking about buying a xmr 1000 what's your opinion is it worth all the money? Planning to buy new
John I bought an 850 XMR it has the shorter wheelbase love it! Something you should consider I have a walkaround video on my channel going over the features and specs check it out!
+Canadian Swamp Donkeys I like xmr's because they just have a shit load of torque. And you have try really hard to get it stuck haha. Nice video
Cant argue with that. But ya if you are looking for a more economical option that still performs the same and even sometimes better than the 1000 XMR the 850 is great. I personally like it better than the 1000 because of the shorter wheelbase
ostracruiser you have encouraged me to get one of these badass machines! thanks for all the awesome vids!
That was entertaining! 👍
Can't wait to see you rock the X3!!!! woot!
7:50 you guys need to sharpen that chain
finally some side by side action!
What that on top of the shirt at 7:32, weird looking flashlight?
enjoyed the video love my defender
The defender makes it look easy.
about 100k of toys that's my kind of life. We just got the cab edition of the defender. Great utv

ROTAXD lo
does the defender have a longer wheel base than the commander, and if you do a project defender, sneak an extra axel on it.6x6 defender tada
Another great video!!
that defender is impressive! you live in God's country.
The kids must have had a blast helping you guys "fetch firewood"
Trees all around ,but we gotta ride miles of trails to get that perfect little Birch tree... lol Teach em young ! Great vid !
They had a total blast! thanks for watching

Ya they build a great product, I have always been very happy with my qe visco loks. i think the bit of slip keeps the front end togethet when you ride wfo as much as we do lol
Yeah...not much technical trails for you guys!!! Lol!!
+Mudman 68 that's where they shine in the technical stuff
On the defender, did y'all put wheel spacers on the rear? I just bought an xtp model and I put my silverbacks on and the rear is about an inch narrower.
Another awesome video osta!!
I like your Toys!
how do you like your mt2's, are they better than the original silverbacks?
Ostacrusier you should do a Defender build eventually.
I know I've asked about what gears to use (depending on terrain) before on one of your videos but I'm not mechanically inclined... Owners manual for my quad says to use L for pulling things or when going under 7 mph. So my question is what about that marshy area/water in the video?

that 6x6 is so awesome, i was looking on the can am website and i don't think the factory 6x6 is available in canada, so how did you manage to get one?
They are available in Canada absolutely
Canadian Swamp Donkeys
really? i wonder why you can't build one on the can am website for canada then?
+mrdann42 I was able to build one on the Canadian site
the guy at the end sounds like badger from breaking bad
Im thinking about picking up a can am defender hd10 xtp.
Ok, so here's a question for ya; if you could only have one of those machines which one would it be?
The extents you have to go to find a tree big enough for firewood in Saskatchewan eh?
are you still running rockcrusher portals on the maverick?
do you put the breather kit on yourself or does it come like that?
Hey ostacuiser do you recommend the X mr outlander or renegade for mud trails?
Zachary Brady
the outlander provides more carrying space like racks and more mud protection than the renegade but both supply the same amount of power
I volunteer as tribute to drive the Maverick when needed
What did you do to this what besides the tires/ rims did you add to it (Defender)? Skids? Lift? Im trying to see what it can do stock before i go get myself stuck in debt with upgrades
+InAllSeriousness88 We did absolutely zero to it besides bolting on the stock 30" Silverbacks from my Xmr Renegade. What a great machine. Surprised the heck out of us
ostacruiser just unreal. I can't believe it!
Any problems with the mav now that the portals are gone?
The defender have a snorkel on it going through that last piece of water ?
Osta you need a lift on that 6x6, you get high centred a little too often
Shit that would be cool, but does anyone make one
The firewood run?!? Lot of work for a couple sticks
Yup lol
Like how you towed the renegade back with the defender
great video @ostacruiser.shame about the renegade but it was just a bump in the road
Did the tires rub on the Defender once you were out riding?
And how fast do you go in low gear?
Do the 30 inch tires fit on the defender stock
Is the defenders power and clutching stock?just got one last week and wondered how it did stock
Yes all bone stock
hey ostacruiser I love watching your video's and awesome atv's bud, hi from teulon manitoba my brother does the same awsome things u guys do with the atv's, keep up the awesome video's
+Jamie Marcyniuk Cool bud! Thanks for watching
+ostacruiser your welcome bud and I will keep watching ur awsome video's so keep em
are you going to get the can am maverick x3 when it comes out?
are you going to do a defender build
Man the defender did really well just with them backs, awesome! I saw catvos makes a big lift for them now ostacruiser. *hint* *hint*
how well does the motors on those can ams hold up
Whats your opinion on the Defender compared to the Ranger XP
Defender rides better, and more reliable
Was that Marge Simpson talking at the end there?
all vechile from can-am it's my favorite
Other then tires is the defender stock?
Yes bone stock
Ostacruiser gear ?
Hi osta . when you have Maverick X3?
What type camera are you used ?
surprised how much better those tires make the defender go, stock tires would be shit in there i need some for my commander
how do u get all ur money to buy all these machines
how do you like the Silverback MT2s?
Who is talking at the end
Just wondering? Do you own all of those awesome machines?
yes / no see can am sponsers these people they give them the four wheelers and they make ostacrusier uses them and makes videos on them so then a lot of people see their stuff and whant to buy it if you understand say yes if not say no
Yes because he owns a can am shop in Canada
I want the maverick, but I need the defender front seat! how is the defender for ride?
Best riding sxs I have ever driven
ostacruiser are you going to get the new maveric soon
how do u seal up the belt housings? been having problems with my 2016 maverick max xds
I never used anything extra. just make sure your snorkels and cvt gasket are good
+ostacruiser ok thank you!!!
Maverick x3 mud machine. Nuff' said.
The x3 just looks like all of the SXS's on the market had a gang bang and was blessed with the heart of rotax. Really though, try to spot all the similarities. Rzr rear suspension, wild cat low profile, exposed front springs like the yzr, etc.
+Pine Apple that's a good combo because people like them of all worlds
+Pine Apple yea it looks good...looks like can am Polaris Yamaha and artic cat all had a hate sex orgy the x 3 was the outcome
Esse canal é top.....muito legal esses vídeos. ....Parabéns amigos.
Hey Ostacruiser. Do you own a CanAm dealership?
how much land do you got?
those are nice I'm looking to ride with some people out here in dallas. mines is just collection dust in the d garage
My little Honda Pioneer 500 could never follow your machines. Do you own all of them?
silverback802 I don't think the defender is his.
Defender is unstoppable haha!
What size tire are on the defender
30"s
whats the name of ur tires
Love the commentary osta lmao
Nice video but wow talk about a big production for 12 sticks of wood.
Haha yes we know 😅😅
Hey Ostacruiser I’m thinking of trading in my can am outlander max xt 1000 for a side by side. I want to be able to take my daughter and wife with me when I go to the farm in Pennsylvania. Which model should I get. The defender max xt or a commander. Thank for any help
+Brian Piscitelli Defender is a much better machine. You are not sitting right on the motor
ostacruiser thank you very much
Brian Piscitelli I agree with Osta on the Defender being a better machine. But if your dealer will play ball, I'd test ride both. Some folks seem to really like the upright seating on the commanders.
Eso es vivir la máxima adrenalina de aventura.
nice but the girls driving was epic as well all the other people are epic at it
defenders da beast
ostacruiser jersey anywhere??
How much is sitting there in the beginning? Bout 100k? Lol wicked machines
классно съездили за дровами:)
Where can I find ostacruiser hoodies?
Facebook
I would love to ride with you guys
welp osta when are we gonna see a maverick x3 build?!!
Nice toys
need to look into the new Maverick x3
Just bought a 2020 defender xt hd8 and it's a bad sob
Awesome!
hey Osta the defender or ranger ? I'm buying soon , thanks
+strpl2 Man that is a tough one. Both great machines, I think the Defender edges the Ranger out in extra features and build quality imo
ostacruiser , bought the Defender hd 10 xt , love it thanks
Can ams are great machines and very capable but given the conditions you ride in wouldn't an argo be better?
silverback802 you do realize that an argo would literally take all day to cover the distance they rode in a couple of hours, don't you ?
More throttle or a file for the saw
Make more videos like this :)
